Shotwell 0.14.1 here. Steps to (re)produce the bug: 1) import images without copying -> thumbnails and images are displayed correctly, as per the orientation tag 2) double click on a "vertical" (i.e. taken in portrait mode) photo 3) right click -> open with external editor (gimp) 4) gimp asks if I want to rotate or not -> yes, rotate 5) modify image, then save 6) shotwell starts eating 100% cpu and eventually crashes; when re-launched, the image is distorted (see screenshot) issue 6) happens about 80% of the time.
For the record: photos were taken with a Canon 60D camera, and are located on an external ext4-foramtted USB hard drive. ** Attachment added: "Distorted image as shown by shotwell after being edited with Gimp." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotwell/+bug/671789/+attachment/4203551/+files/screenshot.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to shotwell in Ubuntu.
